Que bueno que encontre este topico, necesitaba un poco the humor, y lo encontre en las traducciones automaticas del ingles al espanol!!! "tengo un gato en los pantalones" wow eso tiene que doler!! Bueno, me regreso a tratar de installar el trozo de mierda 2007 que no quiere correr despues de la installacion. Buenas noches!! Dom

Well, I have tried many things. there are many ATI kerner modules for dkms with 2005 LE; I used the default one, the 1GB one (since my system has 1GB of RAM), and all I can seem to do is change the bad exit status of the ati module from dkms, from "-5" to "-3" or to "-8". I intalled the gatos driver (ati2.o) and had to to a re-install, since I could no longer get X to work do to version conflicts with dri.so, so with the clean install I chose to use the Xorg driver for radeon, but still no 3D. Granted glxgears is a bit faster, but not much. If I add "load module dri" to xorg.conf the video card slows down again.

I removed the dkms-ati module, and that got rid of the dkms arror message at boot "ati(8.10.19) bad exit status -5", however, I still don't have acceleration, I checked the X86logs and for some reason the glx extensions still refuse to load: (II) Loading font FreeType (II) LoadModule: "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.a" (glx) (WW) LoadModule: given non-canonical module name "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.a" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.a (II) Module glx: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 6.8.2, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2 (II) Loading sub module "GLcore" (II) LoadModule: "GLcore" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a (II) Module GLcore: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 6.8.2, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2 (II) Loading extension GLX (II) LoadModule: "dri" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a (II) Module dri: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 6.8.2, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2 (II) Loading sub module "drm" (II) LoadModule: "drm" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/linux/libdrm.a (II) Module drm: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 6.8.2, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2 (II) Loading extension XFree86-DRI (II) LoadModule: "glx" (II) Reloading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.a (II) UnloadModule: "glx" (EE) Failed to load module "glx" (once-only module, 136033795) (II) LoadModule: "ati" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/ati_drv.o (II) Module ati: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 6.8.2, module version = 6.5.6 Module class: X.Org Video Driver ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 0.7 If anyone has any ideas on why the glx library extensions are not loading please give some help...

My next try will be to un-install the dkms ati-driver that was installed during the first installation, since Xorg has native support for Radeon cards. Again any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.

No sweat, thanks for the help. I just wish I had one of the newer cards, but, until then I'm stuck with this one....

Unfortunately ATI only has drivers for Radeons 8500 and higer. I think my problem resides in that the system believes that I have one of those "newer" Radeon cards.

I have a "regular" All-In-Wonder Radeon, with only 32MB of memory, not any of the newer cards, it is just a plain Radeon (not a 8500 or 9800 or a million for that fact). I used to have 3D acceleration back in the days of XFree 4.3 but that changed with mdk 10.1 when it started to use Xorg. I messed around for a while with 10.1 and gave up on 3D acceleration and figured I would wait for the next release and hope that the problem would be fixed (something similar happened between I think 9.1 and 9.2). To my suprise the problem still exists. XFdrake incorrectly identifies my card as a Radeon frglx, on first boot I had no displays, I had to run Drakconf from the cmdline. I do notice that on boot, if I press the verbose mode, I get a warning that "dkms ati(8.10.19) bad exit status -5", which I can't find anywhere in the logs. Also in looking at the Xorg logs, the glx library is not loading. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
